Something wild is coming Monday! 👀

We're dropping this weekend's ride stops, and one of them is a real-life castle built by hand over 30 years, tucked off the beaten path in Tennessee. Yes, a castle. Yes, you can ride there from the resort. It's easily one of the weirdest, most interesting stops in the state.

Here is the map: https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=14j2-gMWXehhubLOIHxi5zqRglRZ_foo&usp=sharing

Gas up and get curious!

THE DRAGON IS ON FIRE! 🍂🏍️ Reds, golds, and oranges are lighting up US 129 right now, and riding all 318 curves in 11 miles has never looked this good. Peak fall color has started, riders! Roll through Deal's Gap, grab a hot meal at Dragon's Den Grill, and soak it in. Tell us your best fall ride story in the comments, or post your photo below!

THEN AND NOW! 🍲 Mona making her famous fall soups in 2013 and again in 2026. That's 13 years of amazing food and service to our riders and customers at the Dragon's Den Grill.

Her pot is so big she uses a ladder to stir it! 😄 The 2013 photo doesn't lie. We truly couldn't do it without her.

More TBT: the weather guessers say we're in for more snow than usual this winter! ❄️ We do ride... well, everyone but Jud, who needs it above 70 just to think about it. 😄 But an untreated, icy Dragon isn't always the best choice, so we may be heading to other roads this winter. Where do you ride when it gets cold? Where should we visit? Drop your ideas in the comments!

Several folks asked just for the pictures:

Ride off the beaten path and meet 1,500 years of Cherokee history! 🏍️

Judaculla Rock in Jackson County, NC is a soapstone boulder covered in roughly 1,500 petroglyphs, sacred to the Cherokee. It's a great stop for riders exploring the mountains around the Dragon.

Been there? Post your photo and tell us your story below!

PERFECT fall temperatures all week, and we took full advantage! 🍂🏍️

Ellijay Rd., NC 107, and the side roads around Lake Glenville, just outside Cullowhee, are pure gold right now. Creek crossings, a covered bridge, and deep blue mountain water. This corner of Western North Carolina is often unexplored, and it's well worth the detour.
